28. This Kid Was A Real Turkey
I managed a bowling center for about 10 years. I hired a kid who never had a job before, and he was a little on the “odd” side, but he seemed pretty smart, so I took a chance on him. About a month into his employment, a very, very large woman came in with her family. This kid couldn’t believe how big she was. He kept insisting to everyone that it was a costume, saying, “That HAS to be a fat suit”.
He kept saying it and wouldn’t give it up. He then decided to get the truth. He walked up to this poor woman in front of her entire family and asked her, “Are you really that fat, or is it just a costume”? I’ve never been so dumbfounded in my life. He was suspended immediately and fired after the HR investigation. The woman was so upset she ended up getting some pretty hefty compensation from the hotel, which was much deserved.
